A Volcano in Bali Along The ‘Ring of Fire’ Erupted on Saturday, And it Looks Terrifying

A volcano erupted on the Indonesian island of Bali Saturday, sending ash into the sky over surrounding villages and lava pouring down its sides.

The island’s Mount Agung put national agencies on notice, causing some flight cancellations but no reported casualties with the eruption, which reportedly spread lava and incandescent rocks over about two miles.

The national disaster agency said Mount Agung’s eruption lasted four minutes and 30 seconds, according to multiple reports.

Authorities had 50,000 masks available as a precaution, though the alert level on the volcano remained unchanged and there had been no evacuations, Reuters reported.
